	<h3>Quick Start Guide</h3><hr class="notop">
<h2>
	Easy Polling Plugin</h2>
<p>
	This Quick Start Guide will walk you through the basics of this WordPress Plugin. By the end of this guide you will have the Plugin installed.</p>
<p>

<p>
	<strong>2. </strong>Once logged in click &quot;Plugins&quot; on the left hand menu (if you don&#39;t have a &quot;plugins&quot; option you will have to ask a blog administrator to do this and the following steps!)</p>
<p>
	<a href="assets/images/image_12.png" target="_blank"><img alt="Click &quot;Plugins&quot;" src="assets/images/image_12.png" style="width: 226px; height: 448px; margin: 5px; "></a></p>
<p>
	<strong><a name="quick_start_alreadyinadmin"></a>3. </strong>Once on the &quot;Plugins&quot; page click the &quot;Add New&quot; button in the top middle of the page:</p>
<p>
	<a href="assets/images/image_13.png" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="assets/images/image_13.png" style="width: 599px; height: 320px; margin: 5px; "></a></p>

<p>
	<strong>5. </strong>On the next page you will be asked to &quot;Choose File&quot; - Click this button and here you must select the .zip you have downloaded from Code Canyon, once you have selected that .zip file Click &quot;Install Now&quot;:</p>
<p>
	<a href="assets/images/image_15.png" target="_blank"><img alt="" src="assets/images/image_15.png" style="width: 588px; height: 373px; margin: 5px; "></a></p>
<p>
	<strong>6. </strong>The next page will be entitled &quot;Installing Plugin From Uploaded File (e.g. PicsMash.zip) on this page click &quot;Activate Plugin&quot;:</p>
<p>
	<img alt="PicsMash" src="assets/images/image_9.png" style="width: 678px; height: 232px; "></p>
<p>
	<strong>7. </strong>Once you have clicked &quot;Activate plugin&quot; you will see a screen similar to the next image, with a yellow &quot;Plugin Activated&quot; message and a two new menu items &quot;Video Mash&quot; and &quot;Video Mash Admin&quot;&nbsp;</p>

<section id="creating_a_poll">
	<h3>Creating a Poll</h3><hr class="notop">
<h3>
	Create a new poll!</h3>
<p>
	Creating a poll is easy. Once the Plugin is installed, it should display a new menu. Add New Poll will create a new poll. You can add as many options as you like and pick your own colours for the options! Easy!</p>
<h3>
	<img alt="Create a Poll" src="assets/images/image_4.png" style="width: 1138px; height: 416px;"></h3>

</section>
<section id="using_shortcodes">
	<h3>Using Shortcodes</h3><hr class="notop">
<p>
	<strong>Display a poll on any post or page</strong></p>
<p>
	The polls are displayed on the front-end of the website using the following shortcodes.</p>
<p>
	<img alt="" src="assets/images/image_7.png"></p>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	The inputs to the shortcode are</p>
<p>
	poll = ID &nbsp;- where ID is the ID of the poll (shown below)</p>
<p>
	type = bar / box &nbsp; - which type of poll would you like to display</p>
<p>
	perc = yes / no - wheter you&#39;d like to show the number of votes, or the percentage of votes</p>
<p>
	<img alt="IDs" src="assets/images/image_5.png" style="width: 680px; height: 437px;"></p>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	&nbsp;</p>
</section>
<section id="displaying_the_polls">
	<h3>Displaying the Polls</h3><hr class="notop">
<p>
	Once you have entered the shortcodes simply publish the post!</p>
<h2>
	The poll before voting</h2>
<p>
	The following screen is how the Polls look before they have been clicked on. They are animated using jQuery and on hover the boxes will display &quot;vote&quot;.</p>
<p>
	On click, the bars will animate and shrink to the size relative to the number of votes.</p>
<p>
	<img alt="before vote" src="assets/images/image_8.png" style="width: 547px; height: 420px;"></p>
<h2>
	The poll after voting</h2>
<p>
	The below screenshot is how the polls look once they&#39;ve been voted on. If you choose to have one vote per IP, this is the view visitors will see, but with updated results.</p>
<p>
	<img alt="" src="assets/images/image_6.png"></p>
<p>
	That&#39;s all there is to the Plugin. Easy Polling! You can have as many polls on a page as you like.&nbsp;</p>
<p>
	<strong>If you are using one vote per IP, votes are locked to a particular poll, rather than to the post which it is displayed on.</strong></p>
